The cell wall of the oleaginous yeast Trichosporon cutaneum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1993
The cell wall of Trichosporon cutaneum consists of 11% protein, 63% neutral carbohydrate, 9% glucosamine and 13% glucuronic acid. The sugars include glucose (32%), mannose (6%) and traces of xylose and galactose. The cell wall was fractionated with alkali to yield a mixture of alkali-soluble matrix components, and an alkali-insoluble glucan associated ...

Co-production of ethanol and biodiesel from sweet sorghum juice in two consecutive fermentation steps

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2019
Background: Sugars from sweet sorghum stalks can be used to produce ethanol and also to grow oleaginous yeasts. Instead of two separate processes, in this paper we propose a different route producing ethanol and microbial oil in two consecutive ...

Isolation, molecular identification of lipid-producing Rhodotorula diobovata: optimization of lipid accumulation for biodiesel production

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Background The increased demand for oil and fats to satisfy the ever-increasing human needs has enhanced the research in this field. Single-cell oils or microbial lipids produced by oleaginous microorganisms are being utilized as an alternative to ...

Recent Advances in using Lipomyces starkeyi for the Production of Single-Cell Oil

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2023
The clean energy demand and limited fossil fuel reserves require an alternate source that is sustainable and eco-friendly. This demand for clean energy steered the introduction of biofuels such as bioethanol and biodiesel.

Oleaginicity of the yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae D5A [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
The model yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is not known to be oleaginous. However, an industrial wild-type strain, D5A, was shown to accumulate over 20% storage lipids from glucose when growth is nitrogen-limited compared to no more than 7% lipid accumulation without nitrogen stress.To elucidate the mechanisms of S.

Exploitation of Oleaginous Yeasts for the Production of Microbial Oils from Agricultural Biomass

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2014
Lignocellulosic wastes from Arundo donax (AR) and Sorghum bicolor (SB) were used as a source of fermentable sugars for culturing the oleaginous yeasts Lipomyces starkey. In order to minimize the generation of inhibitors of the microbial growth, that is a

A Comparative Study of Citrate Efflux from Mitochondria of Oleaginous and Non‐oleaginous Yeasts [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1983
Citrate efflux from mitochondria of 10 different yeasts was investigated. Isolated mitochondria of all the yeasts show the possession of a carrier system for dicarboxylic and tricarboxylic anions, phosphate and pyruvate. The tricarboxylate carrier is also specific for l‐malate in all 10 yeasts.

Enzymatic extraction of Spirulina biomass for the cultivation of the oleaginous yeast Lipomyces starkeyi

open access: yesApplied Phycology
Microalgae and oleaginous yeasts are emerging as promising biofuel sources. Microalgae fix carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and can contribute to oil production, whereas oleaginous yeasts, though dependent on external nutrients, yield higher amounts
